DESIGNED TO CAST LARGE, HEAVY, WIND RESISTANT FLIES IN WARMWATER AND JUNGLE APPLICATIONS
Modeled after the popular Elite Predator line, RIO's Elite Warmwater Predator line series is designed specifically to cast those big flies easily with precision and accuracy in warmer conditions.
Featuring a short, powerful front taper and plenty of weight at the front, these lines have no problem casting the biggest and meatiest of flies with ease. Running lines are all floating, making them easier to mend and pick up than typical intermediate equipped running lines. Whether floating or sink tip, each line is built on RIO's low stretch DirectCore for maximum performance, and features SlickCast—the slickest, most durable coating on the market.

XS (Extreme Slickness)The RIO test laboratories carried out extensive practical experiments and material combinations, until they discovered the secret behind the XS Technology. The result is a generation of fly lines with a slicker surface. On the water this leads to longer and more accurate casts, less abrasion, less dirt attraction and an overall better performance.
Connect CoreRIO’s ConnectCore full-sinking lines open up new worlds of perception and sensitivity with no-stretch performance. Soft, subtle takes become positive grabs, and without stretch to dull reaction times, hook sets are instant and sure. ConnectCore - The secret weapon for stillwater success.

Multi Density Control
The PIKE SPECIAL was designed for the needs of modern pike and predator fly fishing. The short, powerful head pushes big bulky streamers through the wind and shoots them onto distance. The thin and slick running line enhances these great shooting abilities.
The PIKE SPECIAL makes your casting with big flies easier. You can cast your streamers onto the spot. The coating of the head is "intermediate" which means a sinking rate of 3-5 cm/s. The rear taper and running line is floating. The pike fly line is equipped with perfect loops on both ends for convenient handling.
This PIKE SPECIAL intermediate fly line is perfect for shallow water areas, weed areas and water depths 1-2 meters.

A series of sinking tip lines specifically built for anglers that like a balanced casting rig. A unique, fatter body section eliminates the “kick” usually associated with casting sink tip lines; while the longer front tapers ensure the line does not dump on the forward cast. The supple floating body section allows anglers to easily mend and control the way the fly fishes, making it ideal for river anglers. Each line has a welded loop on the front end for easy rigging.
The lines are sold in "grain" weights, and we recommend the follwing conversion to appropiate rod sizes:150 grains -> 5wt200 grains -> 6wt250 grains -> 7wt300 grains -> 8wt350 grains -> 9wt400 grains -> 10wt

The powerful head is the perfect choice for angler's casting large flies who want fast depth and maximum casting distance. In addition, the fly line is built with SlickCast—the slickest, most durable coating on the market. There are two sizes available, one built with a T-11 fast sinking head, and one with a T-14 extra-fast sinking head. The T-11 works best on rods of 8wt to 10wt in size, and the T-14 on rods between #10 and 12wt – depending on how much is cut off.

RIO’S Premier FATHOM LINES are a series of sinking lines designed specifically for the lake angler. Each line has a short, quick-loading head for minimizing the number of false casts, and for quick, easy distance, and a color contrast between the head and the running line to easily show the line’s loading point. In addition, each line is built with a Hang Marker that shows anglers when to stop stripping, and when to fish the “hang”, and features RIO’s “Density Compensation” (except type 7) for complete fly control. The latest version of this line is equipped with RIO's proprietary SlickCast Coating. The slickes line on the market!

RIO’S CLEANSWEEP LINES are a series of sinking lines built with a clear intermediate front end, seamlessly attached to a faster sinking body section and then to a slower sinking running line. This blend of sink rates results in a deadly fly path through the water, with the line “sweeping” the depths during a retrieve - from the surface, to deep, and back to the surface again – covering a multitude of depths with each cast. Each line has a short, quick-loading head for minimizing the number of false casts, and a Hang Marker that shows anglers when to stop stripping.
The CleanSweep version features a 2m clear (intermediate) tip with a welded loop on the front end.

The perfect Line for roll and Single Handed Spey Casts with Low-stretch, Ultra-slick performance
The Single Handed Spey line has been designed to be a fantastic tool for anglers that prefer/need to perform roll and single-handed Spey casts. The rear weight distribution loads a rod deeply in the tightest of quarters, allowing anglers to make long, effortless casts with obstacles close behind. Though primarily designed for roll casting, this line also performs exceptionally easy overhead casts with incredibly smooth loop control. Each line is built on RIO's low stretch ConnectCore Plus for maximum performance, and features SlickCast— the slickest, most durable coating on the market.
There are 2 different density lines to cover every fishing situation:-A Full floating Line (F), for top water action-A floating Line with 10ft of Hover sinking line, then 10ft of intermediate sinking line at the front (F/H/I), for fishing in the top 2-4 ft

Max CastMaxCast is a ultra-sophisticated line coating, made with a groundbreaking proprietary formula. It redefines floating line performance. MaxCast lines float higher, shoot farther, last longer and stay cleaner.
AgentXTraditionally, getting a fly line to float has required mixing tiny glass balls (called microspheres) into the line’s coating. After years of experimentation RIO has developed a unique element which is six times more buoyant than those used by other fly line manufacturers. This process is called „Fusion Technology”. By simultaneously processing this super-buoyant undercoating with an ultra-smooth outer coating the results are the smoothest, most durable and highest floating fly lines imaginable.

A full range of densities make this a very versatile line series for both the freshwater and saltwater angler. Best of all, the line is built with SlickCast—the slickest, most durable coating on the market.
There are 6 different density lines to cover every fishing situation:
A Full Floating line (F), for top water action
A Floating Line with 15ft of "hover" Sinking line, then 15ft of clear Intermediate Sinking line at the front (F/H/I), for fishing 2-3 ft deep
A Full Intermediate Sinking line with a 15ft clear tip (I), for fishing 3-5ft deep
An Intermediate sinking line with 17ft of Medium Sinking line, then 13ft of Fast Sinking Line at the front (I/S3/S5), for fishing 4-8ft deep
An Intermediate sinking line with 17ft of Fast Sinking line, then 13ft of Extra Fast Sinking Line at the front (I/S5/S7), for fishing 6-12ft deep
A Full, Extra-Fast Sinking "Dredger" line (S7), for maximum depth

Processed RIO-Technologies
XS (Extreme Slickness)The RIO test laboratories carried out extensive practical experiments and material combinations, until they discovered the secret behind the XS Technology. The result is a generation of fly lines with a slicker surface. On the water this leads to longer and more accurate casts, less abrasion, less dirt attraction and an overall better performance.
Connect CoreRIO’s ConnectCore full-sinking lines open up new worlds of perception and sensitivity with no-stretch performance. Soft, subtle takes become positive grabs, and without stretch to dull reaction times, hook sets are instant and sure. ConnectCore - The secret weapon for stillwater success.
Welded LoopsRIO pioneered / originated the innovative welded loop technique. Welded loop fly line tips float better and enable a rapid change of leader. Almost all RIO fly lines are supplied with these small welded loops, please see the appropriate line diagram for information.
Multi Density Control
This clear intermediate line is built on the Mainstream Trout taper. The clear line is invisible for fish and perfect for lake fishing and coastal saltwater fly fishing locations in non-tropical environments such as the Baltic Sea. The sinking ratio is 3.5 - 5 cm/s
